You will encounter interactive elements in the settings that will react to your movement, and it’s your job to solve the puzzles with them before you can advance. As you watch your character come to life, you tell him where to go by double-tapping on a spot in the book, and watch as he makes his way over. This is done by retrieving a cherry blossom fragment from each location, which is hidden, so you’ll have to solve the puzzles to make sure you get them. There are four different areas in Tengami, and you will find out that your goal is to restore life to a dying cherry tree. Seriously, this game is one of the most beautiful I’ve seen on iOS. Some of the environments that you’ll experience on the journey include dark forests, abandoned shrines, and tranquil mountain waterfalls, all of which look amazing.
Tengami takes place in a Japanese pop-up book, and as you go through the various environments found within, you will learn about Japanese fairy tales that are told through the spectacular displays, complete with haunting music to fit the situation. It’s a point-and-click adventure that brings a sense of zen to your hectic life. I also found the soundtrack to be quite a delight too, and this is definitely something you want to relax with after a long day. Tengami has gone great lengths to bring the pop-up book to life, featuring textured paper backgrounds and interactive environments, as well as mixing in flat, 2-D characters in a 3-D world. Then I launched the game, enjoyed the soothing title screen, and then dived in to the calm and serene pop-up world. Seriously, I actually already fell in love with Tengami just from the icon sitting on my home screen - I had noticed that even the icon has a bit of depth to it, giving it a 3-D look, almost as if the shrine is “popping” out from the icon. But Tengami literally brings the pop-up book to life, with stunning visuals that look great on Retina screens. We’ve all had pop-up books as kids, I’m sure.
